((OOC: Since Laina dropped out of the storyline after Treno, I'm finally getting around to this. I wasn't here for the whole Opera House battle, so I'm only going on what I've heard...))
:: Melaina steps into Jidoor, expecting the place to be in ruins. It certainly looks fine, though. Maybe that strange girl, whatever her name was, needed to have her eyes checked. ::
:: Her eyes are drawn by a posted notice on one of the buildings. It was marked "Rebuild the Opera House!", and called for donations from the residents of Jidoor to fund the reconstruction of one of the town's favorite recreational sites. ::
... Or was she thinking of that?
:: Either way, it seemed no harm was done. Melaina turns on her heels, ready to leave the town behind now that she knows it is safe. ::
?????: "Laina!"
:: Melaina freezes, her eyes slowly widening. ::
Oh, no...
:: A girl about Melaina's (apparent) age runs toward her. She is dressed in the typical fashion of the "servant girls" of Jidoor, who did most of the housework in the town. Melaina had, of course, been one of them some time ago. And she knew this girl from the house she had worked in. ::
"... Tabitha."
:: Tabitha smiles. ::
Tabitha: "I knew you'd remember! Even if you did leave so suddenly..."
:: Melaina sighs. Tabitha was one of the main reasons she had left Jidoor. They had been getting too close, and she always tried to avoid too many personal ties to any one place. ::
"I... had some things to take care of."
:: Tabitha looks over Melaina's current clothing. She would look more in place as the mistress of one of the houses in Jidoor than as one of the servants now. ::
Tabitha: "Well, you look like you've moved up in the world."
:: Melaina shrugs ::
"Not really. I'm travelling now. In fact, I was just about to leave..."
:: Tabitha frowns ::
Tabitha: "Awww, don't go yet! We still need to catch up!"
:: She takes Melaina's arm, and starts leading her back into town. ::
Tabitha: "Come on! It won't take long... and you can tell me all about your travels!"
:: Melaina sighs deeply, reluctantly allowing herself to be led to the house where she first worked after being dragged into the human world. ::
Great...
((OOC: If anyone wants to join in here, go ahead... I'll just have Melaina exiting the house later. And if there aren't any objections, I'd like to use this to have Melaina join in when the second group from Esthar arrives.))
